Trusted shower tray repair in Whitmore

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Advice

Shower tray repair in Whitmore, done in place

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. We match the colour and finish. We work on ceramic, acrylic and enamelled steel, and people most often call us about staining and dullness across the tray and edge chips from dropped bottles.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Whitmore

Can you fix a cracked tray?

In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Whitmore?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Whitmore included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

What we’re called out for in Whitmore

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

Customers typically contact us about:

  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom

  • How long it needs to cure

10 questions to ask before you book

When we’d advise against a repair

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Leaking waste fittings

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Cast iron
  • Enamelled steel
  • Acrylic
  • Stone resin
  • Ceramic

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach

Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
